Arise, My Soul, Arise Lyrics
1 Arise, my soul, arise,
shake off your guilty fears;
the bleeding Sacrifice
in my behalf appears.
Before the throne my Surety stands,
before the throne my Surety stands;
my name is written on his hands,
my name is written on his hands.
2 He ever lives above,
for me to intercede,
his all-redeeming love,
his precious blood to plead.
His blood atoned for every race,
his blood atoned for every race,
and sprinkles now the throne of grace,
and sprinkles now the throne of grace.
3 Five bleeding wounds he bears,
received on Calvary;
they pour effectual prayers,
they strongly plead for me.
“Forgive him, O forgive,” they cry,
“forgive him, O forgive,” they cry,
“nor let that ransomed sinner die,
nor let that ransomed sinner die!”
4 My God is reconciled;
his pardoning voice I hear.
He owns me for his child,
I can no longer fear.
with confidence I now draw nigh,
with confidence I now draw nigh,
and “Father, Abba, Father!” cry,
and “Father, Abba, Father!” cry.
Arise, My Soul, Arise Hymn Story
“Arise, My Soul, Arise” is a hymn that was written by Charles Wesley. It was first published in 1742.
The message of the atoning ministry of Christ in the temple in heaven is the most soothing message for all Christians.
For through his death on the cross of calvary we can by putting our trust in Christ approach the throne of God.
We appear there not with our own righteousness but with the righteousness of Christ.
Without the cross there can be no talk of salvation for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of the Lord.
